Cabriolet Top
The fabric roof in the new 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models has been completely
revised. It uses three integrated
supporting elements made from
magnesium. Light yet strong, the
magnesium components make the top
extremely stable at high speeds—
without adding unnecessary weight.
The magnesium structure also creates a
top that is smooth and taut. The fabric
is close-fit ting and forms a line that is
even more elegant than in the previous
model. Yet the benefit is far from being
just superficial. The firm fabric roof of the
new 911 Turbo Cabriolet models helps
achieve a drag coefficient of just 0.31. The glass rear window is
scratch-re
sistant and heated. A
water
-de
flecting edge on the top
helps prevent rainwater from dripping
onto you when you open the doors.
The top is operated electrically by
a but ton in the center console, and
it opens or closes in approximately
13 seconds—at speeds of up to
31 mph. The top folds in a Z-shape so
the inside is always well-protected.
Inside, the roof is covered with
heat- and noise-insulating material,
resulting in uniform interior
temperatures and effective wind
noise suppression. What do you hear
instead? That unmistakable sound of
the Porsche Turbo exhaust note.
Electric Wind Deflector
Developed in a wind tunnel and made
for relative wind: The 911 Turbo
Cabriolet models come standard with
a new electric wind deflector. This
ensures that you can drive with the
top down with minimal wind noise,
and without sacrificing the car’s low
drag coefficient. You can extend and
retract the wind deflector at speeds
of up to 75 mph—at the press of a
but ton and in only t wo seconds. Manually fit ting and removing the wind
deflector is no longer necessary. It is
now integrated directly into the body and
rests behind the back seats, so it does
not need any additional space inside the
vehicle or in the luggage compartment
and is ready to use at any time.
